YOUNGSTERS have started lessons at their new £25million school.
Pleckgate High School Mathematics and Computing College boasts an indoor-outdoor winter garden with palm trees set in the middle of the school.
There is also a 100-seater outdoor amphitheatre, panoramic views around Blackburn, a 360-seater theatre and dance studio, eco-friendly features as well as endless technology and light and much more.
And according to headteacher Robin Campbell this ‘great environment’, which brings the school into the 21st Century, has left staff ‘incredibly excited’ as they unpack 2,700 crates.
It was created under Blackburn with Darwen Council’s £203million Building Schools for the Future, BSF, scheme which will see all of the borough’s secondary schools are being rebuilt or remodelled.
